    If your looking at the Blackfoot-cooking lake recreation area, they are beautiful trails, but mainly flatish ground. Rolling grassland and pasture, and trails through the trees. Lots of wildlife, a pack of wolves, and the feline type cougars.
    Kids and I have ridden many times. They used to allow snowmobiling and I've ridden most of em.
    They hold the birkenbiner cross country ski event there...

    Awesome place to spend the day.

    So which ones of you guys have an apu? Which one and how do you like it?

    I don't currently need one but just doing some research on them at the moment. Obviously carrier and thermoking are the top 2 brands but I've never ran one. All the trucks I've driven either idled or had a battery pack on them.

    I have an empty box on the passenger side that I'd like to swap out for an apu because that's the only place I've got room to stick it really.

    I also found a company that has a small generator that can fit in that box. Then it's a matter of just putting in an ac unit similarly to how @TUG has his and were off to the races. Screenshot_20210501-000459_Chrome.jpg Screenshot_20210501-000606_Chrome.jpg

    I'd assume that's enough to run an ac unit and what not

    It will definitely run a mini split or probably even a small window unit.

    on the bacon- the date glaze darkens and carmelizes - it was absolutely perfect. The cork is from the champagne the folks I was with were drinking.

    it was maybe the most perfect bacon ever...

    dinner tonight

    I was not paying - so the ridiculous prices were only a minor sore point.

    Food was ok but not near as great as it should have been.

    Yea its 12" shorter in the front. But its factory original at 235". Cb antenna is 12', stack 11'6". Can't go taller, and 6 more inches longer I couldn't pull through at my favorite elevator. But when your dealing with a 105 yearold facility. They tend to be smaller. They are building some more new buildings this year. But I doubt any silos will get taller in my lifetime.
